The Wildhorse Saloon will reopen June 4, about a month after parts of it were submerged by floodwaters.

Wildhorse, which last week received a rehabilitation permit for $1.025 million, says the entire facility will be ready for the grand reopening, which is timed to take advantage of the CMA Music Festival, which runs June 10-13.

It will be the first of five Gaylord Entertainment Co. facilities to return to service after the flooding. The Gaylord Opryland Resort and Convention Center, the Grand Ole Opry, Gaylord Springs Golf Links and the General Jackson Showboat are still closed.

“We’re thrilled to welcome back our guests to the Wildhorse, even as the hard work continues at our other properties throughout the city," Pete Weien, senior vice president and general manager of Gaylord Opryland Resort, said in a news release. "The people of Nashville have been tremendous to us, and we cannot thank everyone enough for the support and encouragement sent our way.”

Floodwaters damaged offices, kitchen areas, a production bay and the parking garage at the Wildhorse. Water didn't reach the stage or the dance floor, the company said.
